An Important Feature of South
crn California.


The most charming hotel In Southern Cali
iOrnia is situated much to the advantage of
Los Angeles-at Santa Monica, and is called
the Hotel Arcadia. Every advantage of
ocean and land view has been grasped by
the architect of this modern caravansary.
Its natural advantages are climatic and
scenic. The days and nights are warm. the
temperature changing but little in the
twenty.four hours. On the;ccean side Of the
hotel, in the sun rooms, the temperature 10
from rs to SO degrees. At present writing,
on the land side, on the ranches, it is from
81 to 72. Hundreds of people battle daily
In the open sea, the beach beirg one OF the
most celt brated surf beaches in America.
The beach stretches for miles along the
shore, and the drive on the beach, as we'll as
to the canyons and along the hill sides, is
picturesque and enjoyable.
The hot, itself is model OF comfort and
elegance. We have but to mention few Of
the advantages to give our readers an Idea OF
its cOuveniences. 1t contain steam ele-
hot salt water bathn in the house, surf bath
ing within twenty yards of the hous &, 600
feet of wide covered pOrches Surrounding
the house, as we'll Us the sun porch which ID
u feature for invalide. Not an inside room
in the house. The dining room and parlOrs
overlook the ocean. The house Is elegantly
furnished and the service and table have no
superior anywhere. 1t Is indeed one OF the
few all round year re orts In the world.
Three trains by the Southern Pacific Rail-
road are run to and from Santa Monica daily,
and ct such hours MS will accommodate per-
IONS who wish to do business in Los Angeles
and enjoy the comforts of the above des-
cribed locality Of the Hotel Arcadia.

that even with the last addition to his

American Women Abroad.

Foreigners have long ceased to be
surprised at the small army of American
women that leave their husbands at
home for a year or two, as if it were
the most natural thing in the world.
They cannot begin to understand the
social system that allows Of it, and
maintains. that with all the American s
superior theories about marriage as
the mutual choice of the ones inter-
ested, there is apparently no home life
among us, and not the binding ties that
succeed with marriages on the Contn.
entail plan arranged entirely by the
parents. Neither the Germans, Rus.
slams, English, nor any other nation,
sends it's wives and mothers roaming
about the Continent for year at time
without their lords and masters; while
the number of American women away
from their legal home are beyond count
ing, since they have run up into the
thousands. The queer thing is that
these women have not separated from
and have not ceased to be good friends
with their husbands, and they bewilder
the foreign student of American manners
half to death by treating the situation
as if it were the most common thing in
the world. Often the plea is that the
long absence is for the purpose of hav-
ing the children learn the languages, but
German ard French governesses can be
had in America for the same that their
services command in Dresden or Paris;
and Russians, who speak perfectly all
the European languages, as a rule learn
them all at home. Certainly the Ian
guages are learned at dear price when
il comes to separating the family, clos
ing the home and teaching the children
tongues that they never have chance
to use after their return, unless they
are girls who manage to shine in the
diplomatic circles at Washington. Mex.
leo is our only foreign neignbor whose
language would be of advantage in the
practical business life of an average
young American; but did any one ever
hear of mothers going in any number to
Mexico, or even to Spain to have the
children learn that tongue?
One clever woman here who was
asked what she was going off to Europe
for and leave her husband to play the
eligible to all the pretty girls, answered:
'That's just what Pm going for, to give
him chance to have good time. Why,
he's been getting younger ever since l
said l was going. l don't know what
would happen to him if 1 changed my
mind now and stayed.-[Washington

VIM xictarihus.

There's many a doleful song been sung,
And many a sigh been uttered,
For him whose bread grim Fate main nuhs
TO earth, with the down side buttered,
For him whose sup Is bitter cup
In whose heart fierce passions forage
Whose luckless basin lies bottom up
When the rain 1t raineth porrioge.
'Tis o, and alas! for him who faints
And falls, Vac victis, truly!
Swift some one springs to the preach anu
paints
His life and its virtues duly;
And never grudgeful note Detrays
Such sermon or plaintfve ditty,
For the age is a patronage whose ways
Embrace the fashion-to pity.
But what of song or sigh for those
Whose struggles have not been wasted;
And where is the ear to hear their woes,
Who Victory's sweets have tasted?
Who, out OF the dark below to the light
On the nights of fame ascending,
Are straightway marked for the shafts OF
And envy and hate unendlng?
Nay, nay! The world though a selfish world,
Holds ever a just position,
And thanks the creature whom chance hath
hurled
In the dust-for his sweet submission,
But woe to the hero who sometimes wins,
Who climbs to the top, unheediny
That one of the darkest aud direst of sins
Is the dreadful sin-of succeeding!

HerOism OF an Elk Bull.

One day my comrade broke the back
bone of an elk bull. He fell, then rose
to his fore feet and dragged himself off.
l ran around and headed him. The
animal showed fight the instant he saw
me. His name stood out, the long hair
along his back stood up in an angry
looking ridge, and his eyes blazed with
battle light. He dragged himself di-
rectly at me. Curious to see what he
would DO. l stepped behind tree and
waited. Quickly he arrived at the tree
and then he struck at me with his
antlers. If he had had the use of his
hind legs he would have killed me in an
instant. As it was he barked the tree
and drove me from behind it, and fol-
lowed me to another tree and drove me
from behind that. The play of his horns
was so rapid when he endeavored to
reach around the tree to strike me that
l could not follow the motion with my
eyes. The animal was wild with rage
and pain and was intent on killing me.
NV comrade shouted to me to kill him
to put him out of pain, and l did
so.--fCorr. N, Y. Sun.
